Information:
The Sufficiency Strategy was launched in November 2019. It was detailed in nature, based entirely upon local evidence and national research and set out challenging targets that if achieved would strongly support Torbay’s ambition to become a good or better local children’s service authority.
The new 3 year Sufficiency Strategy sets out, against the key strands, the progress that had been made and the ‘next steps’ that were required to ensure the delivery of a good quality service and living arrangements for our children.
